A PRINCE IN A BLOUSE.
Rags and Rolls of Bank Notes Mix Only
as do Oil and Water.
From, the Manchester (Eng.) Guardian.


From the Manchester (Eng.) Guardian.
A foreign Prince staying i'll Paris made
heavy bet with member of the Imperial
Club that he the Prince would, in the
next two hours, be arrested by the police
without committing any offense or proyok-
ing the authorities in any fashion. The
way he won his wager was by dressing him
moldy boots full of holes and disreputable
burlesque of hat. Thus attired
he walked up to one of the most aristocratlc
cafes in Paris and seating himself at a
table, called for a cup of chocolate. The
waiter, as was only natural, did not care
about serving so suspicious looking culsto-
mer before he was assured that payment
would be forthcoming, so he told the Prince
that he must pay in advance. Upon this
his highness pulled a bundle of bank
notes out of his pocket, and picking
out one of considerable value, told
him to take the price of the chocolate out
of it and bring back the change. The
man immediately went in search of the
proprietor of the cafe, who, when he heard
the facts of the case, ordered the chocolate
served and at the same time sent to the
nearest police station for a Sergent de ellie.
The Prince was, of course, arrested and
taken before a commisSary of police. de
announced his rank and told his reasons for
assuming such an unprincely costume. The
authorities were obdurate at first, but
finally they consented to send the Prince
under escort to the Imperial Club, where
the gentleman with whom the bet had been
made proved his identity and paid his high
ness the money he had fairly won.

the Sanford celebration. The correspon-
dence promises to he lively if published.
A colored LaVilla nynph du pare was
arrested this morning for working the panel
game on colored man last night, and
brought before Justice Belissario. As the
testimony became rather too personal she
get fighting mad and proceeded TO leave.
| The complainant attempted TO stop her, but
the amazon demolished him by a left-handed
blow that keeed him over i'll the corner.
She then sailed into the others who were
trying to capture her, and for while
'wool" flew around lively. AT last she was
overpowered, and with handouts on,
marched back into the court room. The
fracas was lively for a few
moments, and made lots of
fun for the onlookers. On being searched
the colored mans pocketbook was found on
her and also the exact sum he had lost. She
was sent up. Several of the festive LaVilla
nymphs are working the panel game just
now, but the victims seldom 'squealed" as
they are afraid to put themselves forward
as compliments.
THE CITY COUNCIL.
The monthly meeting of the City Council
was held this evening. There was only the
usual routine of business, except when
Alderman TIiaye dumped bombshell in
the midst by few facts regarding the city's
ury Some $4,000 OF this could only be
used for special funds. Against the 5000
net balance some $4,000 in warrants had
been drawn and five months of the present
year We're yet to be provided for. On the
tax books there was $4,000 colectible yet.
No one had the nerve to collect it. The
Council had ordered the levy to be made
and the property sold repeatedly No action
was taken, though all the Aldermen ad-
mitted that the case was bad one.
PROPOSED NEW LAWS.
Several resolutions and ordinances were
introduced and passed. One forbiddng,
under penalty of fines and Imprisonment,
the selling of liquors to minors; another
provides that all buildings must have closets
connected with the public sewer and water
mains 1t was ordered that thirty days
notice of the levy of fire and water tax
for fire and water purposes be made at once.
The Mayor urged that garbage and street
cleanings be not used to fill up the low
places and recommended the building of a
brick crematory and the purchase of two
scows for deposting of the same
The City Sexton reported fifteen deaths
for June.
At the next meeting of the Council steps
will be taken to force the collection of back
taxes, as the Aldermen are waking up to
the exigencics of the case.

Recently when dropping a few lines to a

II. II. Porter Buys the Stock of the Chi
cagO and Illinois Road.
NEW YORK, April 2.-The negotiations
which began about a week ago between
H. H. Porter and President Stevens, of
the Chicago and Illinois Railroad, were
consummated to-day by the sale Of all Of
the stock Of the company except 1900
shares at 110 The purchase was made by
K. P. Flower & Co., who acted for H. H.
Porter and his associates, and the stock
was transferred Immediately after the
agreement was signed. As soon
as the transfer was affected
majority of the old board of directors,
viz; J. c. Knapp, of New York; C. T.
Baker, Boston; c. +. Leonard, Springfield,
Ills; !. F. Peters, Boston; S. NJ. Crosley,
Brooklyn, Vermont, and p. W. Clement,
of Boston, resigned, and Richard NJ. Hoe,
Ogden Mills; David Davis, Jr., A. B.
Flower and H. H. Hollister, of New York,
and Lewis LyfOrd, the general manager Of
the road, were elected in their places.
The new board organized Immediately by
electing Richard NJ. Hoe President in
place of H. H. Stevens and H. H. Stevens
Vice President in place of Geo. H. Ball.
The syndicate is composed of parties iden-
titled with the Chicago and Indiana
Coal Company but no con-
soldation of the two interests
is intended. The Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe is not represented in the syndi-
cate, but as Atchison made traffic con-
tract with the Chicago and East Illinois for
80 years only two days ago the relations of
the two companies is already established.
President Porter, Of the Chicago and In
diana Coal Company, who heads the syn
dicate, says that the purchase of the prop
erty is simple business matter, and he
looks upon it as a good thing both for the
East Illinois and the Indiana Coal Com
pany. 1t brings them into harmony and
gives both the facility to do business at low
rates and in most economical way, and
is moi antagonistic to any other railroad
interest.
